FAQ

08/25/2013 --- What an absolutely beautiful weekend in Georgia - there are usually only about 4 perfect weather days in Atlanta and we just got two of them! The breeze felt slightly tropical, no rain - so uplifting. So I was thinking that this blog might seem a bit confusing so far - although it was beautifully created by Savannah, I find that I still have a few things to add and update, so be sure to check back often! I really created this to keep friends and family updated on how things were going with my "journey". I know that when you pray, hope and think about someone going through a challenge, you want an easy way to see how things are going and hopefully this will be it!

I was also thinking that some of you might have questions. Questions like am I in pain?  No, not at all just a lot of swollen lymph nodes in several places in my body. Am I tired? Not really, a little problem sleeping, but that is working out and I have had a lot of energy too (maybe the juice is helping!). When does the treatment begin? My Chemo treatment begins on Tues, Sept 10th 2013.  Do you think you'll lose your hair? Yes, but don't ask me about a wig - a feminine scarf will do fine to modestly adorn my head. Will you have nausea? Yes, but there are medications available to take to help me with that. Will you continue to work at the bank? I intend to take a leave of absence while doing the treatments. Did you get a second opinion? Not quite, we do have one scheduled on Sept 6th, but hoping an appointment might become available sooner. How did you find out you had cancer? Please check out the "Journey" button below to get a detailed timeline. We often wonder why and how.... I choose to follow my faith and trust the wisdom of my Lord. -- Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. 2 Corinthians 12:10
